2016 Kentucky Derby: Full jockey list and mount

Looking at the full jockey list and mount for the 2016 Kentucky Derby

People love to look at a lot of different things when they’re trying to pick a winner in the Kentucky Derby. Whether they’re looking at the name of a horse, the trainer of a horse, the type of the horse, or even the recent race history of the horse, they look at everything.

That’s the way things shake out for the 2016 Kentucky Derby. What do you think?
